Joss Stone confirms new album 'The Soul Sessions Vol. 2'

The singer will release The Soul Sessions Volume 2 in the UK on July 16 and the US on July 31.

The collection - Stone's sixth overall - will serve as a sequel to her 2003 debut album The Soul Sessions, which sold over 5 million copies worldwide.

The album will contain 11 cover tracks from the likes of The Rolling Stones, Womack & Womack and The Chi-Lites.

The Soul Sessions Volume 2 also features a take on Broken Bells' 2009 track 'The High Road'.

"I think 'High Road' is quite a different one for me," Stone told Billboard. "It's still soul but it's got a darker tone to it, certainly in the beginning of the song."

Talking about her place in today's industry compared to when she first started, Stone explained: "I guess the word that sums it up is freedom.

"I've set up my own record label so that I have the freedom to create music as art as opposed to purely looking at it as a product and that's a huge difference."

The tracklist for Joss Stone's The Soul Sessions Volume 2 is as follows:

1. 'I Got The... '2. '(For God's Sake) Give More Power To The People'3. 'While You're Out Looking for Sugar'4. 'Sideway Shuffle'5. 'I Don't Want To Be with Nobody But You'6. 'Teardrops'7. 'Stoned Out Of My Mind'8. 'The Love We Had (Stays On My Mind)'9. 'The High Road'10. 'Pillow Talk'11. 'Then You Can Tell Me Goodbye'
